1 Hi,
2 I just checked my log-files and found these strange messages:
3 -----
4 2011-07-18T18:31:02+00:00 game fcron[30032]: pam_unix(fcron:session):
5 session opened for user root by (uid=0)
6 2011-07-18T18:31:04+00:00 game fcron[30032]: pam_unix(fcron:session):
7 session closed for user root
8 2011-07-18T18:41:02+00:00 game fcron[30787]: pam_unix(fcron:session):
9 session opened for user root by (uid=0)
10 2011-07-18T18:41:04+00:00 game fcron[30787]: pam_unix(fcron:session):
11 session closed for user root

14 They are repeated exactly every 10min. I think reason for this
15 is /etc/fcron/crontab (did not find anything else might cause it):
16 -----
17 # Script for checking system crontabs and creating the fcron systab.
18 # Runs every 10 minutes, does not mail output, doesn't log job runs
19 # except for errors.
20 @mail(false),nolog(true) 10 /usr/sbin/check_system_crontabs -s 0

23 Now my question is: why is fcron sending messages to /dev/log,
24 when it should not do it?
